can i use gegl for my own OCR software?

Hi all!
I have developing OCR software - the goal is recognition of insurance blanks. I have extracting fields with text from image and send it to OCR public service separately.
The meta-information about text fields i store in special database. The main problem - the source images very diffirent, they have diff scale, margins and so one, so, one meta-information is not valid for all images. I need the tool for handle fields tuning. I see it as graphical editor with source image and freely floating colored bars above it. Where i put colored bar - there image text must be recognized. Please see for understanding the idea: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8qRomgBHgAqNUswckZMWFZUbE0/view?usp=sharing

Please help me to choose right direction.

Respect, Max

Hi Max,
As long as you respect the license, LGPLv3, you can use GEGL for any purpose.

From what I understand the core of your app needs to:

1) show the images scanned 2) allow the user to specify regions of fields to extract 3) extract the pixels of the specified regions possibly 4) pre-process the regions before sending to OCR service

GEGL can handle 3 and 4. Associated libraries like gegl-gtk and gegl-qt can help with 1. Point 2 is out-of-scope for GEGL as a library.

If you have specific concerns, one might be able to provide more specific answers.
